Bookkeeping Mums has taken over all my bookkeeping and BAS responsibilities in 2017. This has given me back a few hours a week, made sure everything is compliant and enabled me to spend extra time on business growth activities. Nicola and her team are excellent to deal with and I would thoroughly recommend them.

I found Bookkeeping Mums doing a Xero bookkeepers search. They were the perfect solution for us. We had already set up Xero and Shopify and were battling our way through. Then Bookkeeping Mums appeared and all our queries were answered and our problems solved in a very short training session. Nicola is very mindful of costs for our new business and recommended a minimum time-based monthly working program which I was very happy with. And what a relief to know that when tax time comes, we simply press SEND and it all goes to the accountant! Nicola is always available for my constant stream of questions which she answers promptly. Honestly, Bookkeeping Mums is a dream team! I can’t recommend them enough.

If you want to have a no worries feeling, ask Bookkeeping Mums to do all your Xero/bookkeeping work. It is fast, on time and gives a relaxed feeling, which means more time to focus on my core business. Absolutely helpful, especially if bookkeeping is not your favourite activity.

Nicola Wong and Bookkeeping Mums are an integral part of the Bayside Farm Box team. Not only are they exceptional bookkeepers, they understand the challenges of working mothers. Getting them on board was one of the best strategic business decisions I have made to date as now, my bookkeeping and financial recording is in auto pilot. This is a very important part of my business in safe, reliable and trustworthy hands. What this means for me, the business owner is that I can focus on the bigger picture items to grow my business rather than worrying about my everyday financial records and BAS, which let’s face it, comes along quicker than a blink of an eye! Amazing service, amazing humans that know their stuff. Thanks Ladies!

Since switching to Nicola at Bookkeeping Mums about 2 years ago, our business finances have been so easy. Our BAS and other ATO requirements are always paid on time. Nicola has a wealth of bookkeeping knowledge; she keeps up to date with the latest tax changes and explains it to us in lay terms that we understand. She has provided us with additional training to ensure we use Xero in the most efficient way, and we particularly like her flexible approach to fit in with our needs. Nicola is always quick to respond to our questions and identify/correct any anomalies.

Bookkeeping Mums provides invaluable support to our growing business. Nicola and her team look after all aspects of our bookkeeping: from BAS preparation to payroll to supplier payments and reporting. We consider Bookkeeping Mums as almost an extension of our business. Nicola understands our needs: she is thorough, responsive, knowledgeable, trustworthy and above all ensures we meet our compliance obligations in a timely and cost-effective manner. The support Bookkeeping Mums provides us means we can focus more on our clients and less on paperwork.

Coming from a trade background with limited knowledge of accounts when setting up a new business was a challenge. The team at Bookkeeping Mums was able to handle the initial set up of a business with two identities with minimum fuss. I now feel comfortable that I will be able to meet my taxation requirement with expert advice from Bookkeeping Mums. The time that would have been spent on trying to reconcile the books can now be used in generating work for my business.

Our Business has been fortunate enough to utilise the services of Bookkeeping Mums for almost a year now. When we first met Nicola, our business books were in a state of complete disarray. Nicola took on the challenge and not only did she clean up the mess left from our previous accountant, but she also educated our staff and implemented new procedures to ensure our books remained accurate and compliant going forward.

She is always available to answer all our questions, whether it relates to Xero, GST, or payroll. She is very well educated and always up-to-date with current legislation. She lodges our IAS and BAS in a timely and efficient manner, and we feel extremely confident (and relaxed) knowing our books are in such good hands.

Nicola is a key contributor to our business success. Nicola’s remarkable capacity and capability to deliver everything that needs to be done in a timely manner enables myself and the rest of the team to focus on developing the business. Nicola ‘cleaned up’ all financially related matters, put in place processes and systems that keep us on track, and provides timely guidance of what needs to be done and what is possible as the business moves forward. Positive and even tempered, fully engaged with the team members and clients, always pro-active and solution focused also makes Nicola a delightful person to work with.

I have run my own electrical company for 25 years with clients including Commonwealth Bank and Murray Goulburn. We have a network of contractors of well over 100. We have had to move rapidly with the times and have moved our company towards being paperless and cloud based.

I was referred to Nicola by my accountant as the “MYOB guru.” She helped me transfer my accounting package to the cloud based Xero. She has been fantastic in sorting out any problems. I find it difficult to find the time to sort out the problems. I simply send an email, she logs on and fixes it. I strongly recommend Nicola to anyone that needs their business problems sorted out. Quite simply she is amazing.

Nicola has been of tremendous value to the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce Australia. Initially asked to help us to organise our financial management, her excellent business understanding made her realise the need for broader improvements. The outcome is we have improved our financial management processes, created significant efficiencies and a much better way of running the operations of the NCCA, supported by a procedures manual that ensures clarity and continuity in the way we work. The Board of the NCCA can now spend more time on its key priorities, acquiring and servicing the membership.

Nicola has the unique combination of business understanding with a practical mindset, making her not only a great consultant but someone who helps you implement and realise the improvements she recommends.

Nicola is the person you go to fix your finances, sort out your bookkeeping and streamline your business. She has a total overview of business finances and operations and how they impact on each other. With Nicola looking after the finances, I can focus on sales and my staff. Highly recommend her for both bookkeeping and business improvement.
